Mark, yes. We have seen that before

[@johnbeardsley2917]

If you use a vinyl rain gutter as a glide inside your 5 inch vinyl post your hoses can just lay on top of it and slide the whole thing inside... when you take them out then you can also use it to keep your hose straight going from your RV to the dump site.

[@DownsizingMakesCents]

John, sorry I missed this. I am blaming Larry haha. That is a good idea. I will pass it on. Alice

[@BiggMo]

You can order that vinyl fence post material online in black. FYI - maybe just wear a stocking cap for padding (my plumber does this when working in crawlspaces)

[@DownsizingMakesCents]

Thanks. We didn’t know about the black. Larry needs to wear a full padded suit- I could do an injury montage 🤣. But I’ll tell him about the cap. Alice

[@gregsherman9968]

Thanks for the great video. I built one similar to the one you showed; I mounted it on the back bumper of my super C. The only issue that I ran into was that the fencepost caps were super tight fitting and were difficult to remove (by design as they are only supposed to go on once). My solution was to take a belt sander and remove some of the material from the fence post in the first inch; witht a little bit of patience I was able to get a fit that was snug, but not too tight. I also drilled 3, 3/4" drain holes in the bottom of the post and added a small gate handle and retention chain to the lid. Again, thanks for the inspiration video.

[@DownsizingMakesCents]

Thanks Greg, the lids i got for my fence post slip on and off easily, im thinking of making a 3d printed cap that has a really quick way to lock on. Larry

[@ErnieandLaurieKnapp]

I've had the same issue with head bumps around the RV. My wife got a pith helmet for me for Christmas. It works great... when I remember to wear it.

[@SmallSpaceLiving]

Larry is Alice beating you again? lol. Come on Alice get in on that black tank. It is not that bad. What in the crap do you need those safety glasses for. You never get hurt. lol That is a pretty cool setup. I can think of many things even beyond sewer lines that you might could store in there. We all know more storage of any kind is great on a RV. No hamlet I want to see where this leads. Man you are super crafty. You and my wife will get along well. She is good with stuff like that. Thanks for the share y'all. I think I may use this for different storage area ideas.

[@DownsizingMakesCents]

William, behave. 🤣. After 35 years, I’m just used to him getting injured. Yes. Lots of things you could store in there @honey and me talked about fishing poles. I’m NOT doing anything with the black tank and sewer hoses. I do so much other stuff. I have to make Larry feel needed 😋. I can’t wait to meet Jessica and get the real dirt on you. Your DIYs are pretty cool too. Talk soon. Take care. Alice

[@lanedelker9161]

I think I saw the same video as you. Mine looks almost exactly like yours. The only thing I did differently was I painted my post black beforehand. I also screwed the opposite cap shut on the camp side. I like your hitch pin much better. Mine is a threaded rod with a wing nut that's kind of a PITA. I couldn't find a pre-made hitch pin long enough. Kudos for fabricating your own.

[@DownsizingMakesCents]

Lane, Larry likes opening caps on both ends. As for the hitch pin, Larry is pretty good at “Larryizing” his DIYs 😉 Alice

Still looking to Larry for sound advice and wisdom in making my wife's and I experience better. Was glad to read the latest update about moving closer to the treatment center!

I attached one to my rear bumper. No cutting. Drilled holes in caps and end of tube and insert a bolt to keep cap on. Works great.

Stumbled across your video, (was looking at conduit caps) look them up on Amazon. U can also make round tubes any size u want with them. But pretty solid DIY! (We have an rv also) and this is a thing I should do… I have a tote for our pipe/plumbing… but this would get it out of my way. I give it 5 out of 5 stars!

I was trying to figure out a way to secure the end caps, a great idea. I was thinking about using 6-inch schedule 40 with screw-on end caps but this is cheaper I think.

Joseph Melcher The problem with your choice is that it’s extremely heavy. I was going to do that until I weighed a 6 foot piece. Larry

[@LisaMarli]

That is clever and bigger. Originally I was thinking glueing one cap, but saw that you made it basically as wide as trailer so access from both sides might be useful. I've also seen one smaller storage bay with a basket that has all the sewer stuff including the black tank flush hose and the gloves. It's all that lives in it, that way it doesn't stink anything else. They use a magic hose that is a different color than the drinking water hose.

[@DownsizingMakesCents]

Hi. We used to keep a lot of it in a bucket. But as full timers, we need all the storage we can get. Plus I like the stinky slinky to be outside away from everything else. Also some people mention it could be used for fishing poles and other things. We can add a lock 🔒 too. Thanks for your thoughts. Take care. Alice.

Hope yours turned out good. I love having the extra space in my 5x5 tube for connectors and accessories that won’t fit in the bumper or my super tube. The goose egg helps me remember how much I had with this project. Larry

[@carbonnb]

If you get a 4" vinyl eavestrough/rain gutter the same length as the fence post, slide it in first and now you have a pullout drawer for the stinky slinky. As an added bonus, the eavestrough can be pulled out and used as a sewer hose support while you are parked and set up. It may be better going up to a 6" post and a 5" eavestrough so the fittings fit in better. I'd love to take credit for the idea, but I can't I saw it online somewhere else.

[@DownsizingMakesCents]

I am also one of those overkill kind of guys, bigger washers would have been better. So far it is holding up well after over two years of constant travel, over crappy bumpy roads.
